Abstract:
Odontoma is a hamartomatous benign odontogenic tumor that may resemble tooth-like structures. Odontomas can impede the eruption of the permanent underlying tooth or can cause devitalization of the tooth resulting in pain and swelling near the tooth, causing diagnostic dilemmas to the dentist. We describe a case of an unusual occurrence of such an odontoma in a 31-year-old male patient in the periapical region of a broken, discolored maxillary central incisor tooth causing a diagnostic dilemma and its treatment.
